LAKE JACKSON, Tex. — Once there was a challenge of a softball game from the Ron Paul clan to the Mitt Romney clan. “They didn’t show up,” Mr. Paul says. “We didn’t schedule it. We really razz them about that, ‘You guys chickened out!’ ”
When Mr. Paul’s campaign jet broke down last year in Wolfeboro, N.H., Mr. Romney’s wife, Ann, offered to let Mr. Paul, an aide and one of his granddaughters stay the night at their summer home on Lake Winnipesaukee.

Real men of the people.
Looks like they have come out of the closet.
Warning to all hoping for a brokered convention:
If Romney + Paul = 1,144 delegates, Romney will add Rand to the VP ticket to secure the support of Paul’s delegates.
The fix is in with these two. You’ve been warned.
Politico’s don’t let other politico’s fly commercial...or stay in stinkin’ hotels.
I hadn’t thought of that angle..but it is certainly a possibility.
I think that Santorum, Romney, and Paul are all reasonable men in each other’s eyes, who can deal with each other.
It is the people like Gingrich, Palin, Perry, and Cain, that don’t fit into their reasonable club.
Paul looks like he shaved real close so he could get smooched on the cheek by Mitt.
Lake Winnepesaukee? Great... now I have the image of Romney strutting around in a “Don’t Hassle Me, I’m Local” t-shirt.
I don’t see what is so scandalous about this. You can disagree with someone without being a dick. Another pointless thread.
